A friendly tennis match, was the request, the two geniuses making their way into the pitch, awkwardly trying to have a conversation that didn't make it sound like they were actually suspecting each other - B looking up once at the name 'Hideki' being named, a smile making it to his lips, but of course L would use a fake name - The two seemingly way too concentrated considering it was a so called 'friendly' match, he was not really paying attention to the match itself, calmly keeping an eye on L's lifespan, as he said he would, before leaving the two alone, maybe.. It was about time to show his face once and for all. He could at least check if he had received a killer, not being more discreet about his work than using a school computer for it, to see a file placed on L's computers desktop, to see it being a case file on a criminal. Tame like a puppy, the dear L. He had even edited dates on it to match this case - Using school computers on what they thought was an honest case, was no shame, he could freely use their printer too, stealing a folder to place the file in, before borrowing one of those ugly, fat, smelly markers in black, writing a case number on it in that typical uppercase handwriting, taking the case file with him, before leaving the school itself, he had to return to the tennis match, his make-up was already done, this being one of the only ways he could gain full access to any corner of the school - Being used to see him running around, Light probably hadn't mentioned him to L, which made it all that much more of a surprise, when L would finally get his 'wish' come true of meeting B - Seeing that already half irritated face of Light Yagami staring at him as soon as he felt him waiting for them to get done - Almost loosing his hit because of the distraction, yet of course saving it, actually winning on that one hit - Feeling a knot form in his stomach, actually for unexplainable reasons nervous to meet L in person, B ignored his worry, and stepped right into it, again taking the face of that complete idiot who tried to be something he wasn't, the trick actually making Light let his guard down every once in a while, still convinced the detective had a brain at the size of a strawberry.

"Light Yagami, what a coincidence to meet you here - I have been looking for you!" immediately getting an exhausted sigh in respond, L looking confused at them both - "Is it important, as you might see I am busy at the time being.." packing his stuff away before against his nature keeping eye contact with that irritating, not to mention, unintelligent so-called detective - B himself about to have a stroke as he spoke, "Yes, I see that you are socializing, that is nice - But, I do believe this will have your interest, you see.. Well, no, first, let me excuse the wait, it was a horrible clueless case, however, I can now announce that I have caught your friends killer.." - Everybody was in equal surprise, Light mostly surprised by the fact that this guy actually caught the killer, while L, a bit in the back, was slowly realizing the guy they were talking to at the moment was most likely B himself, in person.. But, that made no sense, why would he expose himself in front of L, was he missing out on something? - "I see, that's good news! - I suppose he is already paying off for what he has done then?" Light asked, receiving a nod in reply, "Yes, I do believe he is - If Kira hasn't already taken care of him that is.. But, say, I do believe I haven't met your friend before!" - This was the worst that could happen, the worlds greatest detective, and a complete failure meeting. Light shortly felt sorry for L , yet the two shook hands, L still completely stunned by the fact that this was actually happening.. The feeling of his skin, was not the handshake of a killer, what in the world was going on, was B affiliated to someone? - "I am Rue Ryuzaki, you might have heard about me before, considering I've been the one who've been investigating (In other words, most likely also irritating) the students here.." B introduced, before handing L a business card, the detective staring at it shortly, it was identical to the one he had already found, - "I.. Uhh, strawberry jam.." L awkwardly replied, receiving a smile in reply from B - "Yes, I do like strawberry jam, bare, if I can get away with it! - Well, I'll be taking my leave now, it was nice meeting you both, and Light Yagami, good luck with becoming a policeman, I'm sure you can do it! Do call me if you need pro assistance later on." - With that said, he turned on his heel and left.

Both looking after him, before Light questionably looked at L who looked completely lost - "Strawberry jam? - What was that about?" - L shook his head once, waking up, before looking back at Light again, "I guess, isolation has made me socially awkward, I apologize about that.." - The two left off for a visit to a café, while B himself couldn't calm down, quickly returning to his, time being, flat, a yell of irritation leaving him, before placing his head in the sink, splashing cold water down the back of his head, the water reaching his face, staring as hours of work of make-up went down the drain, not even caring that he was soaking wet as he stood up again, eyes staring into the mirror above the sink, unable to ignore his name above his head. A short insane laughter left him, before he grabbed the sides of the sink, leaning in over to look at his ugly face up close, "IN YOUR FACE, YOU FREAK!" he yelled at himself, before backing away, like he was scared of himself, almost slipping on the now wet floor, luckily landing with his behind right at the toilet, completely surprised he just stared out in front of himself for a while, covering his face with his hands, yelling once again, before, what sounded like, crying. - Meanwhile, after what had been a quite hectic day, considering L not only meeting B for the first time, but also gone to a café for them to be interfered with a sudden hospitalization of Light Yagami's dear father, completely out of energy, L was almost happy to see Watari come pick him up, on his way home, eventually falling asleep, getting carried up the stairs into bed - Shortly waking up as the door to the bedroom was closed.. He could hear someone crying.. No, he was hallucinating, he hadn't been sleeping for way too long, reaching out towards nothing in particular, "Please B, don't cry.." his arm went limp, fainting in fatigue - The words apparently reached the one they were meant to, head still pounding from crying, B looked up shortly.. He couldn't sit here and feel sorry for himself, he still had lots to do! - Despite that, he chose to crawl towards his bed, only just getting up into the bed before falling into a deep slumber.
